Open AccessMeasuring Inaccessible Residual Stresses Using Multiple Methods and Superposition
The traditional contour method maps a single component of residual stress by cutting a body carefully in two and measuring the contour of the cut surface. The cut also exposes previously inaccessible regions o...

Measuring Multiple Residual-Stress Components using the Contour Method and Multiple Cuts
The conventional contour method determines one component of residual stress over the cross section of a part. The part is cut into two, the contour (topographic shape) of the exposed surface is measured, and B...
